Technology, science, world, mobility, economy and culture
Cars, trains, bikes and aircraft are all being reinvented at once. This section tracks future mobility across every mode of transport, separating prototypes that grab headlines from technologies already heading to showrooms and stations.
Readers will find a hydrogen supercar claiming a very long range, a Chinese battery breakthrough that could reshape electric vehicle pricing, a French bike designed to ride without recharging and a lower-cost Tesla Model Y aimed at SUV buyers. Rail and air get attention too, with an Asian magnetic levitation train reaching extreme speeds and an electric air race held above city streets.
Anyone shopping for a car should start with the battery and Tesla coverage, which speaks directly to purchase decisions. Rail and aviation fans can move on to the maglev and air race stories. Consumer pieces, like the owner who recovered money from a dishonest mechanic, offer practical lessons for drivers.
